1. Sunakkhattavatthu1. The Story of Sunakkhatta

Evaṁ me sutaṁ—
evaṁ me → evamme (th) | evaṁ → evam (pts) | sutaṁ → sutam (pts)So I have heard. ekaṁ samayaṁ bhagavā mallesu viharati anupiyaṁ nāma mallānaṁ nigamo.
anupiyaṁ nāma → anupiyā nāma (bj); anuppiyaṁ nāma (sya-all) | anupiyaṁ → anupiyā (bj) | nāma → anuppiyaṁ nāma (cck: syā.) | Anupiyaṁ → So SS Bmr Sum; K Anuppiyaṁ; Sum adds Anopiyan ti pi pāṭho. (pts note)At one time the Buddha was staying in the land of the Mallas, near the Mallian town named Anupiya. Atha kho bhagavā pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaramādāya anupiyaṁ piṇḍāya pāvisi.
anupiyaṁ → anupapiyam (bj: syā); anupiyaṁ (bj: kām) | atha kho → athakho (th) | anupiyaṁ → anuppiyaṁ (th) | pubbaṇhasamayaṁ → pubbaṇha-samayaṁ (pts) | pattacīvaramādāya → patta-cīvaram ādāya (pts)Then the Buddha robed up in the morning and, taking his bowl and robe, entered Anupiya for alms. Atha kho bhagavato etadahosi:
atha kho → athakho (th) | etadahosi → etad ahosi (pts)Then it occurred to him, “atippago kho tāva anupiyāyaṁ piṇḍāya carituṁ.
anupiyāyaṁ → anupiyāya (pts1ed); anupiyaṁ (mr) | anupiyāyaṁ → anupiyaṁ (bj: kām) | anupiyāyaṁ → anupiyaṁ (cck: ka.) | Anupiyāya → Br Anupiyaṁ. (pts note) | anupiyāyaṁ → anuppiyāyaṁ (th)“It’s too early to wander for alms in Anupiya. Yannūnāhaṁ yena bhaggavagottassa paribbājakassa ārāmo, yena bhaggavagotto paribbājako tenupasaṅkameyyan”ti.
yannūnāhaṁ → yaṁnūnāhaṁ (my) | yannūnāhaṁ → yan nūnāhaṁ (pts) | bhaggavagottassa → bhaggava-gottassa (pts) | tenupasaṅkameyyanti → ten upasaṁkameyyan ti (pts)Why don’t I go to visit the wanderer of the Bhaggava clan in his monastery?”

Atha kho bhagavā yena bhaggavagottassa paribbājakassa ārāmo, yena bhaggavagotto paribbājako tenupasaṅkami.
atha kho → athakho (th) | bhaggavagottassa → bhaggava-gottassa (pts) | bhaggavagotto → bhaggava-gotto (pts) | tenupasaṅkami → ten upasaṁkami (pts)So that’s what he did. Atha kho bhaggavagotto paribbājako bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
Atha → SS addasā; Bmr K atha. Cp. D. ix. 5. (pts note) | atha kho → athakho (th) | bhaggavagotto → bhaggava-gotto (pts) | etadavoca → etad avoca (pts)Then the wanderer of the Bhaggava clan said to the Buddha, “etu kho, bhante, bhagavā.“Let the Blessed One come, sir! Svāgataṁ, bhante, bhagavato.
svāgataṁ → sāgataṁ (pts) | sāgataṁ → So SS and D. ix. 5; Bmr K svāgataṁ. (pts note)Welcome to the Blessed One, sir! Cirassaṁ kho, bhante, bhagavā imaṁ pariyāyamakāsi yadidaṁ idhāgamanāya.

Nisīdi bhagavā paññatte āsane.The Buddha sat down on the seat spread out, Bhaggavagottopi kho paribbājako aññataraṁ nīcaṁ āsanaṁ gahetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi.
bhaggavagottopi → bhaggava-gotto pi (pts) | aññataraṁ → aññatara (pts)while the wanderer of the Bhaggava clan took a low seat, sat to one side, Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho bhaggavagotto paribbājako bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
bhaggavagotto → bhaggava-gotto (pts) | etadavoca → etad avoca (pts)and said to the Buddha, “purimāni, bhante, divasāni purimatarāni sunakkhatto licchaviputto yenāhaṁ tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā maṁ etadavoca:

“Tatheva kho etaṁ, bhaggava, yathā sunakkhatto licchaviputto avaca.

Purimāni, bhaggava, divasāni purimatarāni sunakkhatto licchaviputto yenāhaṁ tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā maṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho, bhaggava, sunakkhatto licchaviputto maṁ etadavoca:
licchaviputto → licchavi-putto (pts) | tenupasaṅkami upasaṅkamitvā → ten upasaṁkami upasaṁkamitvā (pts) | etadavoca → etad avoca (pts)A few days ago Sunakkhatta the Licchavi came to me, bowed, sat down to one side, and said: ‘paccakkhāmi dānāhaṁ, bhante, bhagavantaṁ.

Evaṁ vutte, ahaṁ, bhaggava, sunakkhattaṁ licchaviputtaṁ etadavocaṁ:
licchaviputtaṁ etadavocaṁ → licchavi-puttaṁ etad avocaṁ (pts)When Sunakkhatta said this, I said to him, ‘api nu tāhaṁ, sunakkhatta, evaṁ avacaṁ,

6. Aggaññapaññattikathā6. On Describing the Origin of the World

Aggaññañcāhaṁ, bhaggava, pajānāmi.

Yet since I do not misapprehend that understanding, I have realized quenching within myself. Directly knowing this, the Realized One does not come to ruin.

Santi, bhaggava, eke samaṇabrāhmaṇā issarakuttaṁ brahmakuttaṁ ācariyakaṁ aggaññaṁ paññapenti.

Tyāhaṁ upasaṅkamitvā evaṁ vadāmi:

‘Hoti kho so, āvuso, samayo yaṁ kadāci karahaci dīghassa addhuno accayena ayaṁ loko saṁvaṭṭati.
Hoti → Cp. D. i. 2. 2, vol. i., p. 17. (pts note)‘There comes a time when, reverends, after a very long period has passed, this cosmos contracts. Saṁvaṭṭamāne loke yebhuyyena sattā ābhassarasaṁvattanikā honti.

Te tattha honti manomayā pītibhakkhā sayaṁpabhā antalikkhacarā subhaṭṭhāyino ciraṁ dīghamaddhānaṁ tiṭṭhanti.

Hoti kho so, āvuso, samayo yaṁ kadāci karahaci dīghassa addhuno accayena ayaṁ loko vivaṭṭati.

So tattha hoti manomayo pītibhakkho sayampabho antalikkhacaro subhaṭṭhāyī, ciraṁ dīghamaddhānaṁ tiṭṭhati.

Tepi tattha honti manomayā pītibhakkhā sayaṁpabhā antalikkhacarā subhaṭṭhāyino, ciraṁ dīghamaddhānaṁ tiṭṭhanti.

Tatrāvuso, yo so satto paṭhamaṁ upapanno, tassa evaṁ hoti—
tatrāvuso → tatr āvuso (pts)Now, the being who was reborn there first thinks, ahamasmi brahmā mahābrahmā abhibhū anabhibhūto aññadatthudaso vasavattī issaro kattā nimmātā seṭṭho sajitā vasī pitā bhūtabhabyānaṁ, mayā ime sattā nimmitā.

And these beings were created by me. Taṁ kissa hetu?Why is that? Mamañhi pubbe etadahosi—

Yepi te sattā pacchā upapannā, tesampi evaṁ hoti—

Tatrāvuso, yo so satto paṭhamaṁ upapanno, so dīghāyukataro ca hoti vaṇṇavantataro ca mahesakkhataro ca.
tatrāvuso → tatr āvuso (pts)And the being who was reborn first is more long-lived, beautiful, and illustrious than those who arrived later. Ye pana te sattā pacchā upapannā, te appāyukatarā ca honti dubbaṇṇatarā ca appesakkhatarā ca.
upapannā → uppannā (bj)

Ṭhānaṁ kho panetaṁ, āvuso, vijjati, yaṁ aññataro satto tamhā kāyā cavitvā itthattaṁ āgacchati.
panetaṁ → pan etaṁ (pts)It’s possible that one of those beings passes away from that host and is reborn in this place. Itthattaṁ āgato samāno agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajati.Having done so, they go forth from the lay life to homelessness. Agārasmā anagāriyaṁ pabbajito samāno ātappamanvāya padhānamanvāya anuyogamanvāya appamādamanvāya sammāmanasikāramanvāya tathārūpaṁ cetosamādhiṁ phusati, yathāsamāhite citte taṁ pubbenivāsaṁ anussarati; tato paraṁ nānussarati.

So evamāha:
evamāha → evam āha (pts)They say: “yo kho so bhavaṁ brahmā mahābrahmā abhibhū anabhibhūto aññadatthudaso vasavattī issaro kattā nimmātā seṭṭho sajitā vasī pitā bhūtabhabyānaṁ, yena mayaṁ bhotā brahmunā nimmitā. So nicco dhuvo sassato avipariṇāmadhammo sassatisamaṁ tatheva ṭhassati.

Ye pana mayaṁ ahumhā tena bhotā brahmunā nimmitā, te mayaṁ aniccā addhuvā appāyukā cavanadhammā itthattaṁ āgatā”ti.

Te evamāhaṁsu:
evamāhaṁsu → evam āhaṁsu (pts)They say, ‘evaṁ kho no, āvuso gotama, sutaṁ, yathevāyasmā gotamo āhā’ti.
yathevāyasmā → yath ev āyasmā (pts)‘That is what we have heard, Reverend Gotama, just as you say.’

Aggaññañcāhaṁ, bhaggava, pajānāmi.
aggaññañcāhaṁ → aggaññañ cāhaṁ (pts)Bhaggava, I understand the origin of the world. Tañca pajānāmi, tato ca uttaritaraṁ pajānāmi, tañca pajānaṁ na parāmasāmi, aparāmasato ca me paccattaññeva nibbuti viditā. Yadabhijānaṁ tathāgato no anayaṁ āpajjati.
